Anyone noticed that Born's privilege is missing from DB item db?

 

[jvu0001]

You can check all of those.


Btw 2.5 bil crits are way too low. I'm happy you're happy with it but you can rise it to ~10 easily. Good luck with it!
It took me 2 or 3 weeks to find the gear I have now.

10 billion crits? Wtf? The highest I've seen my character do is maybe 3.5 bill and (5 billion+ with a power pylon or something). Maybe I need full Ancient gear. I got an Ancient Nat's Slayer but it's only like 3226 weapon dmg. Regular calamity is like 2307 or something. But I heard the only damage that matters is the weapon in the Main Hand , not Off Hand.

Thats because Born's gear is crafted and its not going to drop in the game.

I have to be honest and question the claim of 10billion crits. After doing some math it doesn't seem mathematically possibly with even possible proc at max dmg % and gems max'd out. More like half that is what I'm getting. I'd certainly like to see some video footage showing 10billion crits. I've got more unbuffed and buffed dmg than the OP and I've seen nothing higher now than just over 3billion crit.

then get better at maths! rofl. so easy to calculate. and u cant do it.

even me with not as perfect gear (i run 2xdh bots) can do 6-8B, 10+ is doable. practically and mathematically, especially mathematically LOL. take multipliers into consideration from gems, elemt damage, skill damage, item skill damage and multiply them in the correct order.

i dont think u know how to do the maths, thats all.

dont get offended, i dont mean to offend u. just talking straight

Here you are.
Damn, It's hard to capture a screen shot in time. Took me an hour.
NO SHRINES INVOLVED.

My calamity has very big damage range. Lowest crits are 8 bil, and very rare I saw 15 bil crits. I didn't have a chance to capture them yet.

Yes, only main hand damage calculates for Rain of Vengeance.

Comparing to other classes 1 'Rain of Vengeance' instant hit equals
1. Barbarian ~50 "Dust Devils"
2. Monk ~10 "Dashing Strikes"

Thanks didn't know that, just started playing D3 ~2 weeks ago.

Holy crap that's awesome, can't wait to start owning grifts! Right now I'm able to do rifts in T4, hopefully with rng drops I can move up to T6 and grift properly.

 

[bestdamnwarrior]

@Livingtree - well based on Xeengs screenshots I stand corrected, obviously I did the math incorrectly but no need to be snooty about it.

@Xeeng - I'm not sure where/why I'm missing so much damage then. The highest I've been able to see is a little over 3 billion and I can't imagine where my stats are compared to yours that I'm doing 66% - 80% less damage. Here's a screenshot of my stats and maybe you or someone can point out where I'm severely lacking. I'd appreciate any advice or suggestions.

Just shy of 700 Paragon
Unbuffed I sit at 2,063,982 dmg, 17.3mil toughness and 767k recovery which is slightly higher dmg but 2mil less toughness that I'm working on.
My Crit hit % and Dmg % are virtually the same.
The only major differences I see are:

Dmg Increased by skills: You 50% Me 20%
Attack Speed Increase: You 40% Me 25%
Fire Damage: You 38% Me 0%
RoV Damage Increase: You 53% Me 40%

My Gems are Taeguk Rank 46 - Zei's Rank 46 - Goguk Rank 47. (Just realized you're using BotT instead of Taeguk. I'm assuming that's one mistake on my part?)

I'm not sure what I need to do to increase the dmg increase by skills %, can you advise on that? Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Man! These 4 stats are MOST important!
Especially how they are applied to your damage

Here's how it goes.
1. RoV damage +13% (our difference). Applies fist of these three.
2. Fire +38%
3. Damage increased by skills +30% I guess it's "Wolf Companion" buff.
4. And then, "Bane of the Trapped", applies last. +30% on average.

Lets count:
Your average crit is 3 - 3.5 billion right?
3 x 1.13 x 1.38 x 1.30 x 1.30 = 7.9
3.5 x 1.13 x 1.38 x 1.30 x 1.30 = 9.2

So it's 7.9 - 9.2 bil crits.

5. Just in case if you are not using "Strongarm Bracers" in combination with "Stampede" rune you can add another +30% to your potential damage.
You'll get 10.2 - 11,9 bil crits, just like mine! Exactly like mine!

Also these numbers depend on your main hand damage. You want to have the highest possible damage roll on your main hand weapon.
Ignore attack speed roll on your weapon! Look only at white damage numbers!
And attack speed is responsible for how fast you can reduce your CD on RoV.

CAUTION!
During the upgrade process you will sacrifice some of your main DPS stats for the new ones, and your sheet DPS will go down.
It is totally fine, you are not degrading!

So... Here's the math! And now I'm quite sure that I'm right!

 

[bestdamnwarrior]

Well I'm already using the wolf companion so not sure how I'm missing the other 30%. I'll try swapping the BotT gem and I'll have to see where I can get the fire damage and change to stampede rune. I'll see how it goes, thanks.

 

[XEENG]

My biggest weakness is my toughness right now which I believe is why I can't survive the 47+ GRifts but just working on the right gear to drop without sacrificing damage.

Your biggest weakness at this moment is lack of heavy nuke. Cause dead things can't hit ya!

Good luck! You can do it!

OMG DUDE!

Yesterday I didn't notice you are running with almost "0" CDR!
That's a crime sir, and I'll explain you why.

1. CDR = 0.
a) "Wolf companion" buffs you only 1/3 of time, that's flat 10% DPS.
b) "Preparation - focused mind" restores discipline 1/3 of time, other 2/3 you are running without "Smoke Screen" spam, means youre dead.
c) "Rain of Vengeance" cooldown = 30, means you need to do ~15 hits to cast it again or wait 30 seconds.
Also It's hard to maintain N6 buff that lasts only 5 seconds and gives you 30% toughness and 400% DPS boost.

2. CDR = 50%
a) Wolf buff is up 2/3 of time = 20% flat DPS increase.
b) "Preparation - focused mind" = 100% uptime on discipline regen and 50% uptime on "Smoke Screen". + 200% to you virtual survivability.
c) "Rain of Vengeance" cooldown = 15. You can maintain your buff 100% of time and spam it twice faster.
It gives you +100% to your DPS and doubles your control potential.

Only upgrade I'm looking forward to is +even more CDR to reach at least 66%.
It is possible with Perfect rolled "Flavor of Time" and CDR, CC, CHD "Focus" and "Restraint".

 

[jvu0001]

So I followed your advice and have seen an increase in the billions of damage. CHC/CHD is superior to CHC/CDR or CHD/CDR. But of course we all want CHC/CHD/CDR and Socket.

Anyways previously my critical hit damage was only about 516% but switching out my Restraint ring to boost it up to 561% critical hit damage made a very big difference. I went from 3 billion crits to 7 billion. I forgot to mention that I also changed out my amulet so it now has 20% Fire dmg, CHC and CHD. So I'm now sitting at 40% Fire dmg, 55% RoV dmg, 51.5% CHC, and 561% CHD with 45% CDR (53% with Gogok)

i was wondering can you take a picture of what you put your radius on ? like where in Combat-Demon Hunter where it says radius and Health plz and thank you

Thanks for all the help and advice Xeeng, yea I'm trying to get gear that has some CDR on it or will allow me to reroll some CDR without sacrificing too much in other stats but I have terrible luck with gear. I did make some of the changes you stated and have seen over 5billion crits now, it's hard to see though since the numbers roll so fast.

Hey XEENG, i notice ur running gorgok, think its worth it dropping taeguk? i ckecked the build you linked and hes using taeguk, maybe im missing something?
thx a lot for your effort, top notch guide!!!

 

[randyboy]

Heh, I had the weirdest problem with this Trinity-mod.. The bot kept shooting the oposite direction of the mobs!?
I first tried DB Beta .21 since thats the best working for me regarding the ticks, but i tried the latest beta (as referred in OP) and the bot kept shooting backwards. Always.
Anyone knows why?

 

[XEENG]

For more info check out my first post. I've updated it.
P.S. Big colorful picture.

I don't think Taeguk can replace Gogok of Swiftness.
First of all, bot can't maintain taeguk buff, tried it.
Its painfull to see how he loses 70 stacks because he is stuck or died or just stupid.

Gogok is prefect gem for N6 build because.
1. Rain of Vengeance is our main source of damage.
2. Attack speed and CDR are the only stats that affect how often we can spam It.

And it is follows from my previous post: We need harmony and balance between all of our stats.
Because
a) Same stats are additive
b) Different stats are multiplicative.

Example:
1. 100% (your current DPS) + 20% fire damage + 20% fire damage + 20% fire damage = 160%
2. 100% (your current DPS) + 20% fire damage + 20% marked for death ("Calamity" instead of "Balefire Caster") + 20% Sertain skill damage ("Natalya X-bow" instead of "Holy Point Shot" quiver with fire % boost) = 100% x 1.2 x 1.2 x 1.2 = 172%

These are just an examples of how to build your character. It's better to get a lot of few different DPS sources than stack just one DPS buff type to the roof.
Ask "bestdamnwarrior" about it.

Taeguk gives you Damage and Armor. These stats are not that rare as attack speed and CDR. While armor and damage boosting stats can be met on every piece of gear, theres not that much room for AS and CDR.
AS: Weapons, Offhand, Bracers, Gloves, Amulet, Rings.
CDR: Weapons, Offhand, Shoulders, helm, Gloves, Amulet, Rings.

Didn't count the belt, because it's not an option for us.
